They are such weird forever virgins. I'm not a bit surprised he freaks out and starts screeching, I'M NOT A FAG! whenever a guy so much as looks at him

she probaply still remembers when he posted that picture (that is deleted now) about Colin Kaepernick on his Instagram:

Ahh fuck off Tom. Hope this doesn't give people the idea that metalheads lean right. Metal and punk music has always leaned left against oppressive forces, especially conservatives.

Fuck off yourself, dickhead. Metal has NOT always leaned left, it's a counterculture and that means raging against whatever the prevailing popular culture is at the time. It just so happens that in the 70s, 80s and 90s, the right was culturally dominant. Now, the left has overtaken most public institutions and the pop culture. Leaning left is establishment. Leaning right is counterculture. 

Trump is a general reaction to that dominance.

Been best friends with this girl for over twenty years, we flirted with being more but it didn't work. I am madly in love with her, she knows but has always been clear it would not be anything more. She never had romantic interest in anyone in all that time we spoke every day, usually she would call me, hang out etc. Whenever anyone would show interest in me I didn't care, this person was enough no matter what our relationship actually was or not. In December she told me she had been seeing someone for a year, didn't tell me because of how I would react. Haven't spoken to her since, I genuinely hope she is happy, and I get it's selfish to feel this way at all which also leads to a shit ton of guilt for feeling possessive of someone who was clear what they did and did not want, but I just want to end it all now. She found someone she wants that kind of relationship with but she doesn't want that with me. Been on dates since then, just don't care about any of it. Should probably spend time on myself but I hate myself so have no time for that or learning to love myself, just want to end it, as long as she is happy I am fine.

That pain you're feeling won't disappear when you die: like lightning, it will simply jump to the nearest conductive material, the closest heart. Like a debt, you pass your suffering on to other people, and force them to deal with it.

Not everyone can.

Why do you think he wants to kill himself? It's the last revenge against the poor girl. Don't be surprised if he decides to take her with him.

You are mixing a lot of stuff in your xenophobic rant.

he grew up with the 90s optimism that, if only we could elevate enough of those who were in need, we'd find some brilliant mind deep in the heart of the third world, who only needed to be given the opportunity to live and receive education and they'd cure cancer for us

What it has to do with Corpos diversity hires?

oh of course it's good to take care of those in need and that should obviously continue, but the motivation in terms of what it could bring to corporations was selfish and transactional

b-dubs didn't grow up in a world that already knew these things were true due to proven data, it was a hopeful world expecting that more of everything would always make things better

an expectation that I had thought perhaps didn't pan out, which would explain his second observation of a retreat, until your strong arguments convinced me otherwise

I grew up learning about how multiculturalism was a good thing, about how we could all learn something from each other and make a better world together. How everyone had something to offer.

It seems like, in the last decade, we've collectively moved away from those ideas and have started looking inward, rejecting anything that goes against our preconceived notions, rejecting anything new or different, rejecting anything that makes us feel even slightly uncomfortable. Everything has become either "you're on my side" or "you're against me" as if we hadn't grown up learning the world was a complicated place with many different viewpoints.

Well, there are plenty of multicultural success stories out there. Seems that multiculturalism has only started to have problems in the last 20 years when migration started coming from certain regions where a specific religious extremism is dominant.

Again, uncle, you are mixing multiculturalism (what BDubs was talking about) with corporate diversity and inclusion.

I quite like the weird hooded and masked design but the ridiculous catsuit, the mind control device being between her tits and her weird blonde hair made her look like she was modded by an angry Nazi incel on Nexus. They made this after "true Sheva" where she's just a white woman now.

I don think Its just RE5. Capcom is pretty grim with Jill. The whole "she never ages for reasons" thing they have had for years now, is just bollocks.

They'll keep shoving Leons dusty 50 year old bones around, in his midlife crisis moblie and sex pest haircut, but seem terrified of having a 50 year old Jill pop up.

It's funny because it's not like the Resi universe isn't one where everyone seems to age like fine wine.

 I dare you to make fun of an old Jill Valentine, pussy. 

You can tell they're not a Resident Evil fan at all.  The games explained this.

She's a 10,000 year old dragon?

Look, we joke a lot about it. But this is 100% an egg post

Will, there are plenty of multicultural success stories out there. Seems that multiculturalism has only started to have problems in the last 20 years when migration started coming from certain regions where a specific religious extremism is dominant. 

I will argue that it become a problem when people started to discourage assimilation or being afraid to enforce some cultural cornerstones.

“Yes, your culture is valid and has worth, but you still need to respect the culture and values of the country you are living in.”

“No, stuff like free speech, laicism and secularism are not negotiable. You don’t have any excuse to kill somebody for a cartoon of your religious prophet.” 

(You could argue BDubs has failed in both in the context of the forum: “we let minority voices trample over the majority” and “we tolerate calls for violence and bigotry as long is not directed to us or a group we protect.”)

The lizard people are not secretly running the global governments, they're actually just members of Resetera trying and failing to understand human emotions and behaviour.

And if you call them out for being unable to understand human social interactions, they'll call you ableist.

[Uncle]

“Yes, your culture is valid and has worth, but you still need to respect the culture and values of the country you are living in.”

or, for example, "your experiences having a platonic breakup with your girlfriend are valid but we’re making a movie, not hundreds of millions of dollars of therapy"

I dunno why they give the butch little girl some fake tattoos in the concept art.

Skill issue.
